Star Iron, after using the mod to make the Big Black Tower dark, the game became real

Those images were like flames that would burn her.

She held her breath and handed the camera to Jiang Wei, watching him take the photos and videos away.

"Go take a shower, you're covered in sweat and your clothes are soaked."

Jiang Wei kindly reminded her.

"Could I use the bathroom?"

March 7th, head bowed, like a dove soaked by the rain, hurriedly left Jiang Wei's sight.

Walk into the bathroom.

This place also suffered, and March 7th tried to ignore those traces.

Close your eyes, tilt your head back to relax in the warm water, and try to forget the images in your mind.

The more you try to forget, the clearer you remember.

A fire ignited within me, burning ever brighter, and my throat felt hot with every breath.

"Forget it, forget it all..."

"I can't see anything, I can't hear anything..."

The steam from the bathroom formed a cloud of mist.

The door was pushed open a crack, and a figure wrapped in a fluffy white bath towel tiptoed out.

Jiang Wei thoughtfully reached out and pressed his hand on her forehead.

"Your temperature is a little high, are you alright?"

Perhaps because the girl had just come out of the bath, her body temperature was indeed a little high.

Jiang Wei's touch made March 7's heart race.

As if she'd been electrocuted, she took a step back, and only when she came to her senses did she realize how rude she'd been, and she quickly apologized.

"sorry."

"Don't be nervous, what happened last time is in the past, shouldn't we be considered friends?"

"friend……"

On the seventh day of the third month, her delicate body trembled slightly.

If this really counts as friendship, her worldview is probably going to completely collapse.

Jiang Wei held her in his arms.

My heart was beating faster and faster on March 7th.

Her long, pink hair was wet and clung to her cheeks, and water droplets clung to her soft neck.

She suspected she was sick.

What did she think?

Holding Jiang Wei in his arms, she felt an impulse she had never experienced before.

My mouth was dry and my body trembled slightly.

Yesterday, Jiang Wei's embrace gave her a sense of security, but today it felt like a blazing furnace.

When Jiang Wei released her, March 7's eyes looked like those of a startled fawn, hiding a hint of shyness.

The blush on her cheeks spread all the way to the tips of her delicate ears.

On March 7th, she took the dried-out skirt and slipped into the small cubicle as if fleeing, leaving behind a trail of watery footprints.

Jiang Wei lowered his head and smelled himself; the lingering fragrance and warmth of the seventh day of the third month still remained.

Change your clothes on March 7th.

Before leaving, I politely bid farewell to the fireflies.

But soon they discovered that Liu Ying was hugging Jiang Wei's blanket, a sweet smile on her lips, breathing softly with her eyes closed; she had fallen asleep.

On March 7th, he awkwardly bid farewell to Jiang Wei.

"…See you tomorrow."

"Do you need me to give you a ride?"

"No, no need!"

……

She slipped out lightly on March 7th.

I ran for more than ten minutes straight, then leaned against the wall, panting heavily.

"Why do this...?"

"No! Forget it, forget it all!"

“Jiang Wei…”

"He has Firefly and Lady Black Tower, his relationships are too complicated..."

"Does he have feelings for me?"

On March 7th, an idea popped into my head.

A cloud flew off her cheek at an incredibly fast speed.

She did have some feelings for Jiang Wei.

After all, Jiang Wei had been kind to her.

As the governor of the sector, he forgave her offense, taught her to conceal the truth, granted her passage to the Empire, and even paid for the compensation himself.

He met her aesthetic standards in terms of appearance and had gone through several instances of crossing the line.

"Woooooooo..."

On March 7th, she covered her face and sobbed silently.

So shameful.

She didn't know how to face Jiang Wei; she really couldn't understand Jiang Wei's thoughts.

Could she be overthinking it? To the Empire, are friends just people who stand by and help record videos?

On March 7th, I returned to the train looking haggard and spent a sleepless night.

……

Scientists nicknamed "Firefly" have completed a study that unlocks a technological "frigate."

The consumption of liquid spirit is very large.

Some were used to build alloy ships, others to manufacture weapons.

Jiang Wei used the "Factional Wars Mod" to compare himself with other factions.

The cost of a frigate is 110 alloy and 0.2 molten metal.

In terms of combat power, 10 escort ships can destroy one "Antimatter Legion" doomsday beast, but the losses after the battle are extremely high, with less than one in ten surviving.

This is an extremely exaggerated figure.

Because frigates are the lowest-tier ships, they are considered grunts in interstellar warfare, used to shield larger ships from damage.

The warships are ranked from lowest to highest as follows: frigate, destroyer, cruiser, battleship, and titan.

The strength of the "Titan-class" lies in its main cannon and war aura, but even ignoring these, its mere presence in the star system is enough to terrify any enemy.

It blots out the sky and the sun, and looks down upon everything in its path.

There are even higher-level warships after the Titans.

Jiang Wei saw ship models like Colossus and Overlord in the mod description, as well as a suspicious black cube and a ship that uses a black hole as an engine.

It's probably a technology that can only be researched after you've selected "Ascension".

How can you refine 1440 alloys every day? It can't just grow in the ground, can it?

Please watch vcr.

Jiang Wei opened the star map.

Centered on the galaxy where the Black Tower space station is located, there are no lights in the two surrounding rings, making it appear like an isolated island compared to the overall star map.

Below the star chart is a record.

[Destroyed Stars: 26]

[Destroyed uninhabited planets: 144]

In silence.

26 galaxies have been blasted into minerals, and the debris and fragments in space have formed oceans.

Liu Ying's "Star Essence Extraction" won MVP.

"The star systems at home are almost destroyed, and the expansion of the maze is still waiting for the cooldown. If this continues, in order not to slow down production, we must destroy unclaimed star systems, or even star systems of other forces."

Let's explore the map through a lucky draw.

[Consumes 1 Dream Element to expand the "Dream World" to unknown corners. 50% chance to trigger the special event "Unknown Visitor"; 50% chance nothing happens, all Empire members gain +100 Fate Experience]

"expansion."

The "Dream World" expansion is complete, triggering a special event: Unknown Visitor (Synonymous)

A picture appeared in Jiang Wei's mind.

Pinocchio, the usual spot. I really like the robin's song and its delicate little ear feathers.

I wonder what the wings feel like to the touch? Are they fragrant and soft?

But suddenly Jiang Wei's face lit up with a blood-red hue.

With a "ding", an event popped up.

[Event: Pinocchio's "Illegal Dream Gathering"]

[Description: Dreams are part of a dream world; they are obscure and hazy. We have always had sole ownership of dreams, but now—Pinocchio, which calls itself a "land of beautiful dreams," has created a substandard collective dream world without authorization. What should we do?]

【choose……】

Since they dared to break the law, they must be able to afford the consequences: taking over Pinocchio, taking back everyone's right to dream, and paying off the family's debts.

[Devouring to the End: Big fish eat little fish, little fish eat shrimp. We don't need Pinocchio's dream, but we won't allow it to break the law either. Unleash the power of the rulers, let the might of the dream world destroy this fragile dream; the entire empire? ? Fate Experience +500]

"This should be the storyline of the Empire."

I was only planning to broaden my horizons, but discovering Pinocchio was already a pleasant surprise.

Overjoyed, he got his hands on the Pinocchio.

"Is this reasonable?"

Jiang Wei clicks option 1.

……

"what!!"

Everyone in the Pinocchio dream world awoke abruptly, as if they had experienced a terrifying death.

I was sweating profusely and trembling with fear.

Dreams and reality are separated by an invisible wall that no one can cross.

At the same time, everyone in the upper echelons, including Dream Master, Sunday, and Robin, received a notification.

The virtual screen shows a starry sky background and the back view of a man.

She was tall and had a stern demeanor, which gave people a strange sense of oppression.

A dazzling star chart twinkled beside the man, reflecting the Pinocene Galaxy, with a striking red warning symbol flashing, marking "Under Lockdown".

Below is a strange sequence of gibberish, which is automatically translated into a language they can understand.

[Ultimatum]
